It will be appreciated that embodiments asdescribed in the disclosure are some rather than all of the embodimentsof the present disclosure. Other embodiments, which are conceived bythose having ordinary skills in the art on the basis of the disclosedembodiments without inventive efforts, should fail within the scope ofthe present disclosure.

It should be noted that when an assembly is referred to as “be fixed to”another assembly, it may be directly on the another assembly or it isalso possible that there is an assembly between them. When one assemblyis considered to “connect” another assembly, it may be directlyconnected to the another assembly or it is also possible that there isan assembly between them. The terms “perpendicular,” “horizontal,”“left,” “right,” and similar expressions used herein are merely intendedfor description.

Unless otherwise defined, all the technical and scientific terms usedherein are the same as the meanings generally understood by personsskilled in the technical field of the present disclosure. Herein, theterms used in the specification of the present disclosure are onlyintended to describe specific embodiments, instead of limiting thepresent disclosure. The term “and/or” used herein includes anycombination and all combinations of one or more related items listed.

In an implementation manner of the present disclosure, a damping devicefor a gimbal is provided for damping vibration of the gimbal by using asteel wire rope damper. For example, the damping device includes anupper damping connecting member, a lower damping connecting memberopposite to and spaced apart from the upper damping connecting member,and a steel wire rope damper disposed between the upper dampingconnecting member and the lower damping connecting member. Two ends ofthe steel wire rope damper are connected with the upper dampingconnecting member and the tower damping connecting member respectively.

A steel wire rope damper has characteristics of nonlinear stiffness andnonlinear damping. As compared with conventional rubber dampers, a steelwire rope damper has advantages such as strong environment adaptability,a long service life, diversified mounting manners, good buffering andanti-shock performance, great damping, and convenient mounting. Thus,the aforementioned damping device exhibits good performance in differentvibration situations, and a good shooting can be achieved by effectivelymitigating influences brought about to the gimbal by external vibrationto reduce a vibration frequency.

In an implementation, manner of the present disclosure, another dampingdevice for a gimbal is provided for damping vibration of the gimbal byusing a composite damper including a one-dimensional damper and athree-dimensional damper. For example, the composite damper includes agimbal damper used to be fixedly connected with the gimbal and acarrying damper fixedly connected with the gimbal damper. The gimbaldamper is a three-dimensional damper that damps vibration in athree-dimensional space, and the carrying damper is a one-dimensionaldamper that damps vibration along a one-dimensional straight line.External vibration is transferred from the carrying damper to the gimbaldamper, and then transferred to the gimbal through the gimbal damper.

The composite damper uses a one-dimensional damper and athree-dimensional damper to damp vibration jointly. The one-dimensionaldamper can concentrate on damping in a direction in which the vibrationis more intense, so as to produce a good damping effect while keepingthe cost relatively low.

Based on the aforementioned damping device, in an implementation mannerof the present disclosure, a vehicle-mounted gimbal using the dampingdevice is further provided. The vehicle-mounted gimbal includes diedamping device and a gimbal connected with a vehicle-mounted hangingcomponent through the damping device. The vibration produced by avehicle is transferred from the vehicle-mounted hanging component to thedamping device and, after passing through the damping device, is thentransferred to the gimbal, so as to effectively damp vibration of thegimbal.

It should be noted that an effective load capacity of a steel wire ropedamper 130 may be designed in accordance with the weight of a load hungby the damping device 100. For example, if an effective load of a singlesteel wire rope damper 130 is 2-4 kg, a load up to 10 kg can be easilyoperated.

Based on the aforementioned damping device 100, the present disclosurefurther provides a vehicle-mounted gimbal 10 using the damping device100.

Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 8, the vehicle-mounted gimbal 10 accordingto an implementation manner of the present disclosure includes a dampingdevice 100 and a gimbal 101.

Compared with the traditional damping technology, the aforementioneddamping device 100 at least has the following advantages:

(1) The aforementioned damping device 100 is connected between the upperdamping connecting member 110 and the lower damping connecting member120 using a steel wire rope damper 130. The steel wire rope damper 130has characteristics of nonlinear stiffness and nonlinear damping, andhas advantages such as strong environment adaptability, a long servicelife, diversified mounting manners, good buffering and anti-shockperformance, great damping, and convenient mounting. The aforementioneddamping device 106 exhibits good performance in different vibrationsituations to effectively mitigating influences brought about to thegimbal 101 by external vibration, thus reducing a vibration frequency toachieve a better damping effect.

Referring to FIG. 9, a damping device 200 according to a secondimplementation manner of the present disclosure is basically similar tothe damping device 100 according to the first implementation manner.Their difference lies in that a carrying damper 240 of the dampingdevice 200 according to the second implementation manner is an elasticball damper.

Referring to FIG. 10 to FIG. 12, specifically, in the embodimentillustrated, the carrying damper 240 includes a base 241, a mountingseat 242, and at least one damping elastic member 243. The mounting seat242 is spaced apart from the base 241 at a preset distance. The dampingelastic member 243 connects the base 241 and the mounting seat 242. Thedamping elastic member 243 is a hollow elastic ball. The damping elasticmember 243 has one end connected with the base 241 and the other endconnected with the mounting seat 242.

The base 241 includes a bottom plate 2411 and a plurality of bottom arms2412 that scatter and extend from the bottom plate 2411. The bottom arms2412 are provided thereon with first receiving slots 2413 penetratingthe bottom arms 2412.

In the implementation manner, the number of the bottom arms 2412 and thenumber of the mounting arms 2422 are both four, and the base 241 and themounting seat 242 each have an approximately crisscross shape. Thenumber of the bottom arms 2412, the number of the first receiving slots2413, the number of the mounting arms 2422, and the number of the secondreceiving slots 2424 are all correspondingly set to four, and the numberof the damping elastic members 243 fitted to the bottom arms 2412 andthe mounting arms 2422 is also set to four. Any damping elastic member243 has one end connected to the bottom arms 2412 of the base 241 andthe other end-connected to the corresponding mounting arms 2422 of themounting seat 242.

Any damping elastic member 243 is hollow, which includes a firstconnecting portion 2431 received in a first receiving slot 2413 of thebase 241, a second connecting portion 2432 received in a secondreceiving slot 2424 of the mounting seat 242, and a damping portion 2433connecting the first connecting portion 2431 and the second connectingportion 2432. In order to provide a better damping effect, the dampingelastic member 243 is made of an elastic material such as rubber,silicone, sponge, or spring. In order to achieve a better dampingeffect, the damping portion 2433 is configured to be ball-shaped.

In operation, the mounting seat 242, in a manner of stretching thedamping elastic member 243, reduces unnecessary vibration produced bythe base 241 for the load attached to the mounting seat 242. The firstconnecting portion 2431 and the second connecting portion 2432 arerespectively movably received in the first receiving slot 2413 and thesecond receiving slot 2424. When the mounting seat 242 stretches thedamping elastic member 243, the damping elastic member 243 is prone todrop from the mounting seat 242 and/or the base 241. In order to solvethe aforementioned problem, the damping device 200 is further providedwith four anti-drop members 244 used to prevent the damping elasticmembers 243 from dropping from the base 241 and/or the mounting seat242.

Thefirst abutment portion 2441 is used to abut against an outer surface ofthe base 241 away from the mounting seat 242. The second abutmentportion 2442 is used to abut against an outer surface of the mountingseat 242 away from the base 241.

In the implementation manner, the second abutment portion 2442 isintegrally configured with the supporting portion 2443. The firstabutment portion 2441 may be fixedly connected with the supportingportion 2443 by threading or riveting to facilitate assembly anddisassembly of the damping device 200. Specifically, the first abutmentportion 2441 includes a first abutment plate 2441 a used to abut againstthe base 241, a fixing portion 2441 b extending from the first abutmentplate 2441 a towards the mounting seat 242, and a fixing hole 2441 cpenetrating both the first abutment plate 2441 a and the fixing portion2441 b. In the implementation manner, one end of the supporting portion2443 away front the second abutment portion 2442 is provided with anexternal thread 3443 a, and the fixing hole 2441 c is internallyprovided with an internal thread.

Referring to FIG. 15, FIG. 15 is an exploded view of an anti-drop member444 according to a third implementation manner. The anti-drop member 444according to the third implementation manner is basically similar to theanti-drop member 344 according to the second implementation manner, andtheir differences are as follows:

A first abutment portion 4441 is sleeved on a columnar, second extendingportion 44432. A first extending portion 44431 of a supporting portion4443 is provided with a continuation portion 44431 a connected with asecond abutment, portion 4442 and an engagement portion 44431 bpartially connected with the continuation portion 44431 a and the secondextending portion 44432.

Projection of the continuationportion 44431 a along a direction of the extension of the supportingportion 4443 also falls within the engagement portion 44431 b.

In other optional implementation manners, the anti-drop member 244 maynot penetrate the base 241, the damping elastic member 243 and themounting seat 242. For example, the anti-drop member 244 has flexibilityarid is directly wound around the bottom arms 2412 of the base 241 andthe mounting arms 2422 of the mounting seat 242. In some embodiments,the anti-drop member 244 is in a shape of a strip or rope. The anti-dropmember 244 has flexibility and, on the premise of not affecting theeffect of the damping elastic member 243, may also achieve an effect ofpreventing the damping elastic member 243 from dropping from the base241 and/or the mounting seat 242.

In addition, the first receiving slots 2413 and the second receivingslots 2424 may be omitted. The first connecting portion 2431 is directlyconnected with a surface of the base 241 close to the mounting seat 242.The second connecting portion 2432 is directly connected with a surfaceof the mounting seat 242 close to the base 241. The aforementionedimplementation manner may also achieve a connection of the dampingelastic member 243 with the base 241 and the mounting seat 242.

In order to enhance the damping effect, the first abutment portion 2441movably abuts against an outer surface of the base 241 away from themounting seat 242. In an optional implementation manner, the firstabutment portion 2441 may also fixedly abut against the outer surface ofthe base 241 away from the mounting seat 242; or, the first abutmentportion 2441 fixedly abuts against a surface of the base 241 close tothe mounting seat 242.

In order to increase the amount of stretching of the damping elasticmember 243, the supporting portion 2443 may also have a certainelasticity, as long as a binding force between the first abutmentportion 2441, the second abutment portion 2442, and the supportingportion 2443 is greater than a stretching force of the damping elasticmember 243.

In the implementation manner, the second abutment portion 2442 alsomovably abuts against an outer surface of the mounting seat 242 awayfrom the base 241. In other optional implementation manners, the secondabutment portion 2442 fixedly abuts against the mounting set 242. Thesecond abutment portion 2442 may fixedly abut against an outer surfaceof the mounting arm 2422 of the mounting seat 242 away from the base241; or, the second abutment portion 2442 may fixedly abut against anouter surface of the mounting arms 2422 of the mounting seat 242 closeto the base 241. Here, the supporting portion 2443 has elasticity. Bymeans of the elasticity of the supporting portion 2443, the dampingeffect of the damping elastic member 243 can be realized. By means ofthe binding force between the first abutment portion 2441, thesupporting portion 2443, and the second abutment portion 2442, theamount of movement of the damping elastic member 243 is restricted, andthe damping elastic member 243 is prevented from dropping from the base241 and/or the mounting seat 242.
